Everything that migrated from oid_array to oidset should be OK
because it is likely that existing oid_array_clear() would not
compile until it is replaced with oidset_clear(), at which point
the oidset will be cleared when we are done with it.

However, this one did not use an oid_array and did not have to clear
to release the resources.  So it is very likely that nobody clears
to_fetch that is introduced by this patch, no?

I suspect that this introduces a new leak.
